* {{smallcaps| Reconstructed}}: The convience price for not having to start over, is that the game will be harder now.
* {{smallcaps| Zig Zaged}}: Dying is usually a minor inconvience, unless you do so during the final boss, but beating the final boss after continuing is needed to fight the true final boss.
* {{smallcaps| Enforced}}: One way we can up the difficulty without going so far as [[Final Death|Final death]] is to punish the players for dying.
* {{smallcaps| For Laughs}}: After dying, you get to continue with your comrades constantly bantering you about how you failed.
* {{smallcaps| For Drama}}: Dying doesn't make the rest of the game harder, it just requires you to make a [[Deal With the Devil|Deal with the Devil]] and gives you a worse ending.
* {{smallcaps| Lampshaded}}: The briefing before the mission reminds you of the conquences of failure. "Failure is an option, but you ain't going to like it."
* {{smallcaps| Exploited}}: Although your powerups are removed, due to a bug, the level time is reset allowing for an easy way to get a recorded fast time.
